Re: How to make a simple shinai bag on your own.

Any cloth material would be good. In my opinion, it is best if it is thicker. The fabric I used for the one I made was obtained from IKEA. They are a bit pricy (when I got it, it was RM14++ per meter) but may last your for quite a long time (as long as your pets don't chew on them ^^).

oh! my friend made one like that. He just used some sort of silk cloth.

My aunt makes bags so she got me a bag on the house... ^^

Anyhow, since Red asked, I decided to draw this out and then post it up here (just to clog up the empty spaces on this forum, haha)

Mind you, it's not drawn according to scale... so, I trust you to fiddle around with the measurements using your shinais and modify it as you see fit.

Sa-jie, as always, I am amazed by your latent abilities.
